Cereal grain and hay notes with brown sugar. Lighter on vanilla than previous releases. A hint of grape-jelly-like character typical of Buffalo Trace products.

Bite across the full palate with balanced, even warmth. Peanut-butter-sandwich-like toasted character. Less numbing than some peers, with even distribution of spice.

Notably short to medium-short compared to other releases in this flight. Fades quickly despite promising front-end warmth.
